First, the short answer: A prime is defined as any counting number that is divisible by exactlytwodistinct counting numbers: 1 and itself. Therefore: 1 is not prime, because it is divisible by only one distinct counting number: 1 2 is prime because it is divisible by two distinct counting...
1 is not prime because of the definition of prime. Prime is “An integer greater than one is called a prime number if its only positive divisors (factors) are one and itself” So to a number be prime it need to be greater than one. The question is why someone would think 1 is prim...
My mathematical training taught me that the good reason for 1 not being considered prime is the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, which states that every number can be written as a product of primes in exactly one way. If 1 were prime, we would lose that uniqueness. We could write 2 as ...
"Why is it that given that the if a number is not prime, then it is automatically divisible by a prime." This is the result known as the fundamental theorem of arithmetic. Every positive number greater than 1 can be written as a prime , or as a product of primes uniquely (up...

, and under the proof's assumption, n n cannot be prime.* this is where the logic confuses me. why is it that given that the if a number is not prime, then it is automatically divisible by a prime. i can't think of an example to contradict, but that's not proof that there ...

' but the idea is simple. Prime numbers are not multiples of other numbers (the unit one was not view as a number). So why the word 'prtos ' and why should it be 'prime' in English? The Greek philosophers used the word 'prtos' is the sense of first in order of ...
